I'm big on photos. It's one of the passions in my life and you'll see snapshots stuck everywhere in this site. Most of the website's stuff I do is taken with my digital camera, some of it was taken and developed using traditional or alternative photo processes. Yes, I do my own developing and printing and later scan this stuff in.

My first and still favoritest medium-format camera. She's a Graflex! Isn't she cuuuuute?!

I have a darkroom in my house, but it's B&W, not color. The more expensive equipment is on somewhat permanent loan from a family friend who is tres, tres cool and whenever I think of him I feel really, really grateful!

 I could never afford to indulge in some of my photo habits all by myself! It's one of those hobbies that eats up money. Siiiigh.

These are the collections that are specifically photo-oriented. Some are snapshots, some are artsy, all of them pure Astrophe.

These images are organized into ring tours because I feel that's the best way to display them. At any given moment you can skip out to this page and then move on to the main index.
